who am I...?

As I look around at how many different people there are in the world sometimes I go on wishing I could be like someone else. Who would I pick though... then I realized, I wouldn't trade being me for the world. I guess the question though is who am I? Do people every really figure out that question? Or do they just keep falling in love with who they are becoming?

rest. . .

I'm caught up in thoughts of the day of my Lord
when I will enter into His rest

Can you imagine the great peace we will have
the great freedom from this strife

Oh to gaze into the eyes of my sweet Lord
to taste the rest He has bought


I'm waiting for the day of rest when I will finally be with my Lord and will fight no more

I am where I am

It's funny how worked up we can get in life running from one thing to another. Today I was stressing myself out trying to think of where I should go and what I should be doing with my life. Then I realized, I am where I am. I've had so many twists and turns in my life I don't know why I keep trying to act like I know where I'm going. Today is all I'm given at the moment. How do you know then how to dream? I guess I will dream big today and do all I can to make this day a great day. Maybe the Lord was right when He said today has enough worries of it's own.

Well this week was my first week of school and there has been so much to do and so many things to read and from it all too much to learn! My goodness I love being here and learning to delight myself in the Lord. I feel like my whole has been to rush rush rush and work work work, but now I'm learning all that is in vain if I don't wait and delight on the the Lord. He's greatest goal is His glory and I want His glory to be my only pleasure. God is a good God =}

"If we should seem at times to be a bit slow, let it be remembered that we do know the direction we are called to go, and as long as we have followed that original urge we have been blessed with success beyond our best expectation. That we maintain our God-revealed direction is vitally important. Let us not fail here." -Towzer

Montana Brrrr....!!!

So today I went for a rafting trip to get to know some of the other students. Let me tell you about our little adventure. We started out in the morning and there were some grey clouds in the sky and the water was freezing but we thought, "hey we can do this, no big deal". YA it turned out to be a big deal. We got in with some shivering and screaming and set off down the river. We were having lots of fun going along playing some games, throwing a football between all of us, and trying to avoid tones of rocks and a log. Soon though it got colder and colder until shivering was no longer a choice. We walked a little ways in the water trying to get to a faster current but soon we were all so frozen and the clouds were only getting darker. So we all climbs out and got to the road with our tubes. Three of the students got out on the road and caught a ride back to our cars. The rest of us tried to stay as warm as we could while waiting for our rescue from the breeze and sprinkling rain. Soon they came and not even two seconds after all the door shut it began to hail. We hit everything perfectly without a second to spare. Praise the Lord. We raced back to our apartments and dried off and got into our warmest clothes then hung out and made chili, corn bread and coffee. mmmm i love college and gotta love that good old Montana weather! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
